Just how much do you "haggle?"

[Rambo]

at one time the rate was 20-1... a couple went with us on one of our trips, the woman's husband ( a know it all) barged in when the woman was buying a large sack of fresh oranges and limes for 30.00 (J)

"Are you nuts Lisa???, Thirty Dollars !!!????.........Your Crazy,here lady...takes this 20 (US) and be happy about it, we can buy this stuff at home"....................."Lisa I dont know about you , what you would do without me"

They are now divorced

He is also known for his statement " I dont haggle with the Taxi Guys....I jump in tell 'em where I wanna go...
jump out...give 'em a Ten and close the door and walk away"..I cant figure that "stuff" out....."
We asked him what the drivers would say ??

"Oh... some were mad ...some were happy as hell" "All evens out in the end"

he no longer travels out of the US.....

You can also haggle at the resorts. We stayed at the Grand Pineapple in March. My sister was with us and had never been to Negril before. Her and her girlfriend wanted to go to Ricks. She had talked to the resort and they told her it was $30 for the two of them round trip.

I told my sister to let me talk to them. I let them know I knew how much the red plate taxis cost to go to Ricks and that I wouldn't let my sister over pay. They brought the price down to $10 each. I still think that was too much, but my sister was happy with the price.
